What a Great Day!

First of all, THE SUN! This whole day has been beautiful and sun soaked. My dogs are loving the rays and all day long they have been stretched out in the sun being lazy.

Second of all, MY TAXES ARE PAID! It was a beautiful day four years ago when I first visited Mark Cisco of Cisco and Company. He is always very patient with me and his staff is excellent. I can go forth now and know that I'm paid up and have fulfilled my financial legal obligations.

Third of all, THE LIBRARY was open! With all the cuts in the library it's rare for them to be open when I'm passing through. So I stopped in and grabbed a couple books and then purchased a few from the donation pile.

Fourth of all, THE OFFICE is on tonight AND it's a one hour special!

Fifth of all, I have a NETWORKING EVENT to attend tonight. My friend Marissa from Locust Street Consulting has spearheaded a young professionals networking group. It's called GLYP (Grand Lake Young Professionals). This should be a fun evening.

Sixth of all, I have sooo many FUN DESIGNS I'm working on. I can't share them until after the event but I'm excited about them all.

And now a quote of the day selected randomly from my new (to me) book.

"No, I'm breaking it in for a friend." said by Groucho Marx when asked if Groucho was his real name.

Let me introduce you to my friend, Roy G Biv

Roy G. Biv is a mnemonic for the sequence of hues in the visible spectrum in rainbows, and in order from longest to shortest wavelength:
Red Orange Yellow
Green
Blue Indigo Violet

How exciting for me to have special shelves to keep my colored papers organized! I used to keep them all in one giant stack, which wasn't fun when I needed one sheet of red shimmer paper to work on a proof. "Red" of course being on the bottom. These little shelves (above) were made of the scrap wood from the "real" shelves (below). They worked out perfectly!

Pegboard before . . .

Pegboard after!

The pegboard seemed to be the easiest thing in the world for Adam and Mikey to build. Especially since it was made from a scrap piece that was sitting in Mikes shed just begging for a new life. But I love it the most out of the whole room/closet.

And now a picture of the man that made it all happen. Looks like he now gets to pick where to sleep when he gets in trouble - the doghouse and the paper shelf.

One last thing - we finally saw the sun today!
Hope your day is sunny too!
